Millions Learn Pay Increases Won't Be Allowed For 90 Days
The Cost of Living Council said government workers are subject to Nixon's 90 day wage-price-rent freeze and may not receive guaranteed raises if their contracts start after August 15. Federal workers face similar limits, while military personnel may keep longevity and promotion pay but civilian Defense Department staff are bound by the freeze. High level talks in Washington and abroad address the impact on unions, foreign ministers, and markets as France and Germany debate dollar policies and tie common currencies to dollar movements.

Freeze Stops Military Pay Hike Amid Wage-Price Freeze
Treasury Secretary John B. Connally said Nixon’s wage-price freeze halts military pay raises, contradicting Pentagon claims that service promotions would still trigger increases. Connally noted personnel would be treated like others, while Pentagon officials argued Defense Department civilian staff would face no raise. The Cost of Living Council had allowed raises for bona fide promotions, an exception suggested to extend to the military.
